No-hitter alert: Jon Lester

[Shaggy]

Lester has a no-no through seven against the Royals.

 

[imjustagirl]

I have a friend who's really pissed he's not at this game.

 

[Shaggy]

7 1/3, Butler strikes out.

 

[Shaggy]

7 2/3, another K

 

[Shaggy]

Lester has a no-no through 8....I believe 8-9-1 is due up in the ninth.

 

[Barsuk]

Yes. German, DeJesus and Grudzielanek.

 

[buckweaver]

Yours is a little quicker than mine, Shaggy. I'm listening to the game on MLB radio on my cell phone. They just called it through 8.

 

[zeke12]

ESPN says they'll be cutting in.

 

[Shaggy]

It's German, Pena and DeJesus.

The first two are hitting well under .200

 

[imjustagirl]

Ha! I just asked BYH that on IM, zeke.

Good. I'll go watch. Which will certainly curse it.

First time I've ever been quicker than Beej.

I feel shame.

My bad. I didn't click down to the next page on my mlb.tv box score.

Jon Lester > Gavin Floyd?

Didn't they cut in for Floyd's? Or did I watch online?

 

[zeke12]

Come on, kid.

Two more.

 

[Shaggy]

8 1/3, thanks to Tony Pena's incompetence

I dunno. Was under the impression they didn't. I know they didn't for Buehrle last year, because we crowded around my computer at work to watch the end.

In related news: it's very, very easy to root for Jon Lester. I'm always partial to a lefty who wears No. 31 (since I did, too.)

That, and the whole beating cancer thing.

 

[zeke12]

One more.

Come on, kid.

No-no or not, the Saux have some attractive female fans. Meow!

EDIT: Two down!
